im still running a set of Potenza Re002. Theyve been discontinued from Bridgestone, but theyre still around as Firestone Firehawk Indy500. I love them.
RE71RS are what all the winning cars use in the series I run in.
Recently paid approx. $1,000 for Bridgestone DriveGuard all-season run flats on our 2015 AWD XLE, including mounting and balancing.
From a consumer preference side, they are probably the only brand that has the same level of reputation as Michelin. Also, they are consistently the top performing tire supplier in the ultra competitive Super GT, often ahead of Michelin teams.
You can never go wrong with a bridgestone from my experience. Apollo and goodyear are also great.
I myself drive Nankang AS2+ with the dimensions: 235/35 R19.
Apart from the less direct steering and a driving profile that is a little more geared towards comfort, I am very satisfied.
I have a great grip feeling and the rim protection is slightly wider than with the nexen nfera su1.
I had Bridgestone Weatherpeaks on my Ascent. I also live in the Seattle area and I liked them a lot. Great grip in both wet and snow, no noticeable noise increase vs the stock Falken Ziex tires.
I’ve driven a wide variety of winter tires. Bridgestone, GoodYear, Firestone, Cooper, Michelin, Continental, and one or two others. Some were quieter, some were better on ice, some were better in deep snow. None were terrible. If you go with major brand names, that are not much over 5 years old, you should be ok.
The factory Bridgestone tires only lasted about 24k miles.
Probably would not recommend these tires after having them for a couple years on the S60 and about 15 months on our XC70... The XC70 just went in to the tire shop because we had some sidewall damage (accidental curb strike) with only about 11K miles on the tires. They measured tread depth and it seems they were about 70% gone.
